I prefer for government to err toward less regulation, lower taxation, and free markets. And I'm a radical free trader.
Government officials and citizens care about many causes - and they all require resources. For example, I am personally passionate about ending the human trafficking that still occurs within our borders.
I, for one, will remain constantly vigilant of a government that admits its transgressions of liberty only when they are caught lying.
We need more transparency and accountability in government so that people know how their money is being spent. That means putting budgets online, putting legislation online.
Transporting Americans is and should be one of the most important functions our government must address.
For about 125 years, give or take, the Canadian government has acted extremely badly - even in a way which should be called evil - breaking treaties, breaking agreements.
If health care is a $2.7 trillion industry, and a huge percentage is paid by the government, then you have to be involved in politics to make a difference.
One of the great, and largely forgotten, triumphs of American society and government has been how smoothly U.S. farmers and their communities negotiated the creative destruction of the early 20th century and emerged triumphant when it was over.
In any case, decisions on troop levels in the American system of government are not made by any general or set of generals but by the civilian leadership of the war effort.
Second, the resolution contains the blatantly false assertion that negotiating a timeline for bringing U.S. troops home with the Iraqi government undermines U.S. national security. Such a statement shows a misunderstanding of the enemy we face in Iraq.
A timeline for bringing U.S. troops home that is negotiated with the Iraqi government would also boost the Iraqi government's legitimacy and claim to self-rule, and force the Iraqi government to take responsibility for itself and its citizens.
Spending when the math's not there and the numbers aren't there and if they look in the social security trust fund, it's filled with IOUs because the government's been pilfering it for years on end. We have to do something. We have to start having this discussion.
Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.
We believe in a government that trusts people and doesn't limit where you finish because of where you started.
The American people deserve truthfulness, not more political campaigning. The American people deserve a responsible government that seeks to address their needs, not more ideological dogma.
Improved turnout will give parliament and government the appearance of being more legitimate.
I was in Australia for many years. And the system there is a two-party system and the government changes from time to time.
The fact is that in a way, journalists become a kind of default in the system when you don't have substantive two-party back-and-forth inside of the government.
If the government decides to become a tyrannical government, our guns are to protect us against that.
For me, it is very important that we listen to the voice of the investors, not only the voice of the Ukrainian government officials, parliamentarians, or the president.
